Eagles WR A.J. Brown out of wild-card game vs. Buccaneers due to knee injury

Philadelphia Eagles wide receiver A.J. Brown will not play in Monday's Wild Card playoff game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers due to a sprained knee, according to multiple reports.

He could return if the Eagles advance to the NFC Divisional Round.

Brown injured his right leg in the first quarter of last Sunday's 27-10 loss in the team's last regular season game after being tackled and did not return to the game.

Brown had 106 catches for 1,456 yards and seven touchdowns this season for Philadelphia, who lost five of their last six games after starting the season 10-1.

Wide receiver DeVonta Smith, who did not play in Week 18 because of an ankle injury is expected to play Monday, as he was a full participant in practice on Thursday and Friday.
